    He captured Harper's Ferry with his nineteen men so true
    He frightened old Virginia till she trembled through and through
    They hung him for a traitor, they themselves the traitor crew
    But his soul goes marching on!
    Glory, Glory, Hallelujah!

      A true US-American hero. How come he isn't celebrated more? Question from a foreigner who finds it disconcerting that the CSA is still celebrated and such a great anti-abolitionist is hardly mentioned and if he is, he is usually just labelled as a complete lunatic.

      @@NKDuisburg02 It's sad what's happened here. There's a delusion that started immediately after the civil war was over. The south started apologizing for itself. Trying to paint itself as a rebel against northern aggression. That the war was about states rights, not slavery.
      Unfortunately that delusion is still well in place. Despite the fact that we can read the actual journals of the southern soldiers who fought in the war. They knew what they were fighting for, and they called it slavery.
      I think John Brown is a hero.

      If only 0% of the students were weird or raised their hand to just get attention and distract the teacher from actually trying to teach. If this guy taught in a public school he would get demoralized pretty quick. Teaching to a camera that won’t interrupt you or curse you out is way easier.

    Long time ago I was invited to a Party in Fells point MD.. Me, a Black man, flying up from Georgia did not know nothing about Maryland or Baltimore.. So, we was in this hotel top floor and a guy says look over there and u can see Harpers Ferry. and he mentioned some river.. I had not a clue !. then yrs later I hear of a name of a man called John Brown. I swear I thought john brown was a black man that lead a revolt on white folks to try to escape and end slavery. Lol. boy was I wrong.. Sot this video tells me thatJohn Brown was a White Man. lol. And now I know the Story and where I was at the time during the visiting of fells point MD at a Party.. thanks for making this video. And I am deeply thankful for Mr. John Brown !!

      Brown was the Junior Deacon of Hudson Masonic Lodge #68 in Ohio when he declared that he would devote his life to abolition at the Congregational Church. His father, Owen, owned tanneries, one of which employed Jesse Grant, the father of Ulysses S. Grant. Although John Brown moved frequently, we in Hudson like to think this was his hometown. It is where he made his fortune and where he dedicated himself to the cause. Jesse Grant was a frequent visitor at the Brown home. A house fire could have changed the course of history dramatically.

      Slavery came late to the British colonies that became the US, and it was therefore going to end a bit later than it ended officially in Britain....however it was going to end within a generation of 1859...and likely end legally and peacefully as it eventually did in the UK. 25 years prior to abolition, the Parliament couldn't imagine it ending. 30 years before it ended in NY, Penn, Mass their governments wouldn't entertain the idea either. The pattern was there in the states and the nation for gradual realization and growing wage capitalism replacing slave labor
      John Brown's juhadist faction and this raid ended a hope that was going to happen. After the raid the southern states reorganized their miltias into state armies. The raid and a first republican presidency + congressional majority were the fuel the secessionist needed to instill panic in the general population.
      As you can all see, it is a wound that will not close....though it has eventually closed in most nations that abolished it in the mid 1800s

    Awesome video!!! Been to Harpers ferry a few times in late 1990s & early 2000s and enjoyed the area. Glad you panned the camera around a little bit to show some of the scenery for had forgotten how beautiful the region is. Been living in Kansas for 25+ years and have visited all the sites associated with John Brown in Kansas from Osawatomie, KS, where the cabin of his sister is now a state historic site and to the various pre-Civil War battlefields that he fought on. Also been to the sites of the Potawatomie Creek Massacre and Marais des Cygnes Massacres. Always amazes me how Civil War history basically forgets the happenings in late 1850s in Kansas-Missouri, and forget what was happening out this way even during the war years. Anyways, hope to make another visit to Harpers Ferry sometime in the future.

    As I represent, as a living historian, a private soldier of the 82nd Illinois Vol. Infantry Regiment, 11th Corps, which has endured the " slings and arrows" of criticism for nearly 160 years, based on the first day's action at Gettysburg, despite exemplary service on day two, as well as solid service in the latter half of the war.

The marines got together so quickly that some of them couldn't make sure they had the right type of weaponry to suppress the insurrection.

    I used to live in Perryville, Kentucky. My mother lives in Versailles, Kentucky.
    In all of my travels across this beautiful nation, I never seen a place with so many churches as in Kentucky.
    With so much blood shed there during the war between the States a spiritual revival swept across the land, leaving many churches in its wake.

    Hey, thanks. John Brown was a man 100 years ahead of his time. He lost this battle, but his martyrdom inspired everyone from Lincoln to Frederick Douglass to Harriet Tubman. A great fictional novel about John Brown? Try Russell Banks "CLOUDSPLITTERS". A long and complicated book, but it shows us the bravery of men who ACTED upon the evils of slavery, not just talked about it. Thanks guys for the vid, again.

    I just visited Harper’s Ferry yesterday and I told all my friends about John Browns story and they were so fascinated. Also I play a game in which y’all may have heard called War of Rights which I feel has a pretty accurate portrayal of how Harper’s Ferry used to look. Just not the events. In the game it has the Confederate Army and Federal army fighting in the streets hand to hand which didn’t happen but still a very cool what if.
